No chance of being reinstated then I assume? Or maybe this is going to join 3415 at wardle

2401 is technically in the reserve pool now. this was a Thurmaston allocation until it blew itself up or something, a week before the BMMO event.

2311 (P311 FEA) is at Wednesfield for spares recovery.

I've never traveled on 2207 was it a good bus? And maybe 2390 could come to cannocl to join 2391 as it was refurbed?

Bob

2311 was a FAR better bus interior wise than any of Staffords S-YOG, or V-KDA darts! The V-Reg ones havent ever been refurbed and are mingin inside ( apart from v207 kda which was refurbed same time as v206 whilst at Cannock)

2286 was refurbed at cannock but 2287 wasn't, it was just resprayed but 2391 was refurbed, cannock have the horrible brown interiored 1, and I think 2348 was refurbed but the res of the S/YOGS have that dotty interior

Bob

2287 was refurbed i think but the seats got a new covering of the old moquette whereas V206 got the newer style, both done in 07 to coincide with the chaselinx brand
